you
Look back at me.
Look back at the clouds.
I think
You looked at me from a distance.
You observe the clouds up close.
Far and Near is a very abstract poem, and its beauty is hidden in abstract lines.
You, Looking Back at Me, Looking Back at the Cloud; I've been watching you. What is the relationship between "you" and "me"? There is no explanation at all, only the subjective psychological feeling of "I" towards "you". In the feeling of "me", "when you look at me", you seem to be "far away" from me; When you look at the clouds, you seem to be close to me. This is an illusion. The reason for hallucination is that the poet hides and deliberately leaves a big blank to lure readers to imagine, and this kind of imaginary picture will vary with readers' psychological factors.
"Cloud" may symbolize nature. When "you" looked at "Cloud", it showed Chen Bailu's childlike innocence and enthusiasm when he looked at frosted flowers on the glass at sunrise, but when "you" came back to reality to look at "I", it was replaced by another indifferent expression. Therefore, "I" think that "you" when "looking at the clouds" is the real "you", and the real "you" seems to be very close, as close as close at hand; And "you" when "looking at me" seems very strange, and there is a feeling of "separation", such as being in the distance. Strong emotional factors force the deformation of objective physical distance to adapt to and express the truth of subjective psychological feelings. Illusion comes from aesthetic intuitive thinking. The poet realized a profound meaning in his momentary illusion: the harmony between man and nature, and the separation between man and man.
Poetry not only expresses emotion, but also conveys experience. Distance conveys an experience that people often feel in real life.
Poetry seems to be purely rational and very calm, but when it is carefully tasted, it secretly urges a heat flow: calling for a kind of mutual understanding, mutual trust and harmonious interpersonal relationship.
